Live corporate paella catering in Crowthorne
How our corporate paella catering works in Crowthorne
We plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so even a big team eats quickly. Typical bookings include team-building days and office lunches and away days, serving Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches.
In Crowthorne, team events tend to be at the office or a local venue. Paella feeds a team fast and covers every diet. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.
What corporate paella catering costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Waiting and bar staff
- How many courses
- Parking and unloading
- The number of people
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Anything your venue supplies
It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
